If you haven’t already filled out your new patient forms online, we’ll provide you with the necessary paperwork to complete. These forms help us get to know you better and understand your medical history, dental health, and any specific concerns or goals you have for your smile.

Comprehensive Dental Exam

Your first visit includes a thorough dental examination. This involves a visual inspection of your teeth, gums, and mouth, as well as digital X-rays, if necessary, to gain a complete understanding of your oral health. Our dentist will check for any signs of decay, gum disease, and other potential issues.

Professional Cleaning

Depending on your dental needs, you may receive a professional teeth cleaning during your first visit. Our skilled dental hygienist will gently remove plaque and tartar buildup, leaving your teeth feeling fresh and clean.

Personalized Treatment Discussion

After your exam and cleaning, our dentist will discuss their findings with you. We’ll provide a detailed explanation of your oral health status and, if necessary, recommend a personalized treatment plan. This is a great opportunity to ask questions and express any concerns you might have. We’re here to ensure you’re fully informed and comfortable with your care options.

Financial Consultation

Understanding the cost of your dental care is important. Our office team will provide you with a clear breakdown of any recommended treatments and discuss insurance coverage or payment options. We’re committed to providing transparent, upfront information to help you make the best decisions for your health and budget.

This dental team is much smaller than it was before summer 2024, when Dr. Borchert owned the practice, but the staff is friendly and attentive.
